Maybelline Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner in Purple

Came across this Maybelline display in Watsons (Wisma Atria and Ion) featuring a new limited edition Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner (S$19.90) in purple, which is supposed to a limited edition shade from Japan. There is also a matching purple eyeliner pencil. The ad features Sylvia Patonel, the first runner-up in the most recent edition of Singapore Idol.

The stocks for the gel eyeliner were not in yet but the tester was already on display. The gel eyeliner shade actually looks quite different from the ad visual. In the ad, it looks like a very blue-toned midnight purple while in the pot, it looks like a deep red-toned burgundy. When swatched, it is a lovely metallic burgundy purple.

Maybelline's gel eyeliners are reported to be the #1 best-selling gel eyeliner in Japan so it is well worth checking out. You can read a review of the black version on My Women Stuff.
